St. Mary Mercy Hospital is conducting a Community Health Needs Assessment
St. Mary
Mercy Hospital is conducting a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) to
evaluate the changing health and social needs in the communities we serve. The
CHNA process involves analysis of available data from a variety of sources, and
seeking input from public health organizations and stakeholders representing the
interests of the broader community. Your valuable input allows us to gather the
community's perception of need, not necessarily what
conventional data might suggest is the need.
Once
completed, the CHNA will be shared publicly on stmarymercy.org and utilized to
prioritize focus areas for St. Mary Mercy community benefit planning. The
assessment will also be discussed with our community partners to identify
opportunities for collaboration to address priority needs.
Your input
into this process is tremendously valuable, so we hope you will take a few
minutes to complete the 8 question survey. If you want to view the results of
the survey, there is a link found in the lower right hand corner of the thank
you screen after you submit your survey.
The
survey can be accessed here.
In
appreciation for your participation, your name will be entered into a drawing
for an amazon.com Kindle (if you have provided your contact information
at the end of the survey). Please pass this message on to other community
members.
